Hi,
This question has probably been asked before, but I was unable to find the answer. Perhaps any of you can direct me to a thread or page where my questions are answered?
I have a network containg among others a Windows XP based server that I would like to use to store my MP3s and JPEGs. I would like to use iTunes and iPhoto on my Powerbook to access them.
- How can I configure iPhoto and iTunes to use the Windows machine as the main library for these programs?
- Is there a way to prevent startup problems with iPhoto and iTunes when the network is unavailable, or does this require a full reconfiguration of the programs?
- Another related thing: I can access the Windows shares on my Powerbook, however I have to manually reconnect to them at each boot. How can I set the Mac to reconnect to the windows share automatically at startup when they are available?
Thank you very much for directing me in the right direction!
Jorg
